But a pharmacist right? You should know the importance of valid clinical trials compared to unfavourable or inconclusive results? The latter doesn't disprove the null, y'know.

If you find out drug trial results are unfavourable or worse, do you continue selling it? Thalidomide?
You see this is the thing, if you don't understand that parallel, given the control group is Remain and you have a statistical threshold you have to meet (confidence intervals anyone?) you can't even be a good pharmacist! That's fundamental to what pharmacy studies.
You couldn't assess efficacy, peer-review studies or make determinations on risk without that skill. When I say I would have fired folk for voting leave, I definitely would! You're plainly demonstrating an incapability to do your job effectively. Firing for incapability is legit.
So again, pharmacist you say? Do you sell your own drugs?
Read the rest of the thread Ed Vining. Then maybe I'll tell you a story about NICE. Your 'Most'=many, not most.

You may consider it a daft example Ed, but I'll ask again, because apparently, you're a pharmacist. What was the Thalidomide incident a precursor to, in the UK?
So Ed Vining couldn't take the cross-examination heat and has gone for the block :-D

That's not the reality. If we look at actual data, instead of newspaper articles, we can can see that the only people in surplus are immigrants.
In addition, immigration allowed the NHS to plug holes in medical staff supply, for free. Now there are 40,000 nursing vacancies & for each, the NHS has to pay £1,100 min for visa applications via applicant & agency. £1 billion a year more as EU citizens aren't applying to come
^Those are Nursing & Midwifery Council figures on first time applicants from the EU.

In addition, there has been a steady stream increase in the number of EU nurses leaving. Meaning the NHS is losing 300 experienced & senior nurses a month, net.

Nope. I say that because the ECJ does not interpret it that way. As it considers a private service, completely differently to a public one. To understand that means having to understand how EU & UK treats them & this isn't it.

Both EU, the UK, as well as the USA to a lesser degree, have very strict rules about non-collusion, anti-corruption & fraud. All the above TfEU articles are about protecting the public & public money, from politicians granting 20 years or permanent contracts, to their mate/wife

It's funny. Corbyn, without a doubt, took a Eurosceptic line. But he is. That's no secret.

The problem is, his position on that portion of the speech is unworkable. Much of it is and it's based on crap knowledge (as usual). #Thread
First fallacy: Agency workers aren't cheap! The reason? Any company has to pay both the workers rate AND the agency fee. The latter being anywhere from 18% to 60% of the worker's salary. The agency can't and doesn't charge the workers (aka work seekers). Illegal under UK law.
Both the Employment Agencies Act 1973 & Conduct of Employment Agencies and Employment Business Act 2003 (known within the industry as "the regulations" - IT Contractors, that's what you're majorly opting out of).

No great secret. @jeremycorbyn is an idiot. As perhaps are some of @UKLabour support.

This will highlight a lot of what's wrong with Corbyn's nationalisation position but remember the Tories are worse overall. Not that it matters since after Leaving the EU, everyone is toast.
Corbyn has been cited as holding a position where membership of the Single Market & EU prevents the UK from Nationalising the Railways or Utilities.

#FakeNews.

The following. Minimum, 80% Nationalised. Germany, France, Italy... All EU, all public owned.

I remember Corbyn attempting to run a principled @UKLabour Party. Using real data to make decisions. But since courting some of disintegrating UKIP, while feasting on tactical Remain votes (outnumbering ex-UKIP by several orders of magnitude) he's become the same #FakeNews junkie

.@SamGyimah says “it’s true” when it’s false. Relied on a straight out lack of understanding of how trade tariffs are applied & mathematically what that means to asymmetric trade. WTO EU & UK will be applied to 3rd countries symmetrically. Our circa 500bn of imports will cost /1
550bn EUR in the case of a 10% symmetric tariff, while our exports go from 300bn to 330bn. From 500bn-300bn=200bn inside, we are then at 550bn
-330bn = 220bn EUR outside the EU. Thus we PAY the EU MORE money outside the EU. /2
Even if we looked at just GROSS membership fee (imaginary £350m a week), its 2bn more than even THAT number! That is money that is one of the EUs main modes of funding. So Gyimah’s position is straight out false. Deliberate disinformation? Or “wilful incompetence”? /
